Washington, January 31. Economic aid for Korea was wrapped up in the same bundle with similar assistance for the Chinese Nationalists in Taiwan today. That gives the Korea project a new chance in the House which turned it down weeks ago.
The
package looked much better to some of the lawmakers who struck' at Ad- ministration policy in the Orient by rejecting the Korean plan when it was offered alone.
The House Foreign Altairs Committee did the wrap-up job, putting together $60,000,000 for Korea, the amount originally refused, and $28,000,000 for Tal-

MEAT SHIPS TO BE UNLOADED

London, January 31, The Food Ministry said today that it is unloading five of the 15 ships used 'us "floating_re= frigerated warehouses for Bri- tain's nicat supply.
The five vessels, where a total of 15,000 tons of meat has been stored, will be put back into service transporting supplies from abroad.
Aboard the 10 remaining ships are meat cargoes totalling 21,000 tons.
"There is no significance about the unloading of the ships,” a Ministry spokesman said." "They were only taken on charter for a limited period and are needed to 'transport... more meat from abroad."
The London Fress noted that the move coincides with the resumption of talks between Britain, and Argentina on the price of meat to be shipped to Britain from Buenos Aires.
The ships were hired whert the slaughtering of home-grown "meat" produced a sedaonial glüt Last year--Associated Press,
